I tried to hop back into multiplayer after playing strictly Warzone since it came out, and god it was the complete opposite of fun. I don’t know why Warzone has made me completely useless in fast paced normal multiplayer.

Very clever. Except the game isn't F2P, the same unlocks apply to the paid multiplayer game, the bulk of which have to be bought regardless either through the battle pass or outright for individual packs. I'm saying that for what is surely one of the richest developers out there, they could probably put more effort into creating content that might encourage someone to slap down a few more bucks on top of their original purchase (or at all) instead of all the skins being mostly the same and boring. In addition to your inane shitposting contributing to the downfall of the forum as a whole, your "wHy cOmPlaIn iTs FREE" attitude is exactly the reason companies can set the bar so low and follow the trend of creating games made up of reused assets and never ending beta phases. I bought the BP in the last two BRs I played, because there was a large variety of content, plus those games were free to begin with. Activision has made, what, 47 trillion off this franchise in the last 15 years? You trying to tell me they couldn't put a few more operators/skins in the game?

same. I seem to be getting an unsual amount of games where im either facing a full clan who then shits on my team or i get tossed into a game in progress where my team is down 50+ points. Like this used to be maybe 10-20% of the games id get and now its like 70ish. I could go back to warzone but it just sucks rear end with noone to play with and solo WZs are loving Aids.

So forced wfh mad me download war zone and it is amazing. I see people arguing about the IAP, but what about the base game. Is single player cool? Regular MP make it worth 60 bucks?

It's a pretty standard CoD campaign, I don't think it's any better or worse than previous ones.

MP is amazing. Lots of map variety, lots of game modes. They brought back shipment and Rust, if you have any love for those maps...
Wish that it was easier to filter matches by mode, wish there were dedicated servers, and wish matches started faster, but it's still good.

No clue about COOP, apparently it's the same map as Warzone. Probably fine if you have a friend to play with.

I think it’s the best campaign since COD4, even if the story is a mess, which they all are.

Picking brains here but:

HDR vs AX-50 in WZ

Personally I prefer the AX-50 w/ variable zoom and range boosting mods. My normal squaddie swears by the HDR similarity kitted. Neither of us can get the hang of the other for some reason. What’s the actual difference between the two?

MW lets you set ADS sensitivity as a % of hipfire so it's a good idea to take advantage of it. I found sensitivity of 7 with ADS set to 0.75 works pretty well for being able to still spin around on people behind me without making ADS too twitchy.

When kitted with the longest barrel the HDR has much better bullet velocity and almost no bullet drop. Even at 200-300m a crosshair on an enemies head will still result in a headshot.

Jumped into Warzone for the first time this evening after about a month away. First game, got totally loving clowned on. Second game, second place and one trigger pull away from winning.

:sigh:

Game owns though.

EDIT: anyone else getting unplayable lag? Just won a game by forfeit when the entire enemy team and half of mine all timed out after three minutes.

Finally got my first win because the dude who downed me with 5 people left forgot that self revives were a thing while he was standing right over me. Killed him and inched forward under the pile of loot he left behind until there were only 2 guys left who were too focused on each other to notice me.

Do you keep getting into vehicles and getting killed by the RPG? Maybe you should stop doing that.

RPGs require no skill so I'm not sure how that will help. Thank you for the advice.

I have fun playing this when I just want to relax because it's not to be taken seriously at all. It's funny that there are Tournaments of this being played when everyone just sits in a flatbed with RPGs.

I will say that the fact that you can fire rockets as you parachute in after every spawn in plunder is a bit dumb. Otherwise I don't see how its a low skill weapon at all, knowing how and when to use it is part of the skill.

An rpg can’t even down someone with full armor can it? Maybe if it’s a direct hit? If you die to someone shooting you with an rpg, and then switching guns to shoot you again, it’s your own drat fault.

pretty sure they can down you from full armor, the explosion has to be relatively close.

They'll kill someone with full armor on a direct hit...I think. Not sure if it has to be a headshot. Either that or I've just killed a bunch of people who had partial armor. It's hard to tell cause at the beginning of the match is when I most scramble for an RPG and lot of people still have their armor at 2/3rds

I’ve definitely hit the ground a foot or two away from someone and not downed them. Maybe a direct hit will down them, though.
